I try to educate people about materialism through my work. I try to show them real visual luxury.

I try to be a truthful artist and I try to show a level of courage. I enjoy that. I'm a messenger.

When people make judgments they close all the possibility around them.

I went to art school... but I worked at the Museum of Modern Art. I worked in fundraising at the information membership desk. I ended up, over a period of time, doubling the amount of membership revenue that came in through people entering the museum, so people would ask me to come and work for them.

If I try to articulate every little detail in a drawing, it would be like missing the forest for the trees, so it's just about getting the outline of the forest.

I think about my work every minute of the day.
